Masters of Disaster
The Grant Wood Area Chapter hosted 35 youth ages 6-10 last Saturday for our annual Masters of Disaster. This program teaches youth how to prevent, prepare for and respond to emergencies in a fun and interactive way. The went through a "tornado" wind tunnel and crawled below streamers to practice what they should do in a house full of smoke. A special thanks to KCRG's Kaj O'Mara for a weather presentation. What a fun day!
